    Phenomenal selection! Could've spent hours here. Will definitely be back. Owner is very knowledgeable and cool. Very hard to leave without purchasing something. Picked up some cassettes, records and action figures.

    Awesome place for comics, music, movies, video games and more! This place is a real treasure chest! A lot of rare, and hard to find 80's vinyl. A full wall of nothing but movies, which I love! I could spend hours in here! If you're into rock, classic, pop, R&B, funk or punk, there's something for everyone here! Awesome helpful staff too! If they don't have it they will order it for you.

    Very cool staff. Ask Eric about his comic subscriptions, because it sure saves me a good bit when I buy comics.

    Excellent comic book shop in the Charleston area. Had time to kill waiting for a flight and…read morehappened upon this spot. Nice selection of trade paperbacks and a decent selection of action figures (lots of vintage stuff) and tons of Pops. Also had a lot of back issues. Fairly large space as far as comic book shops go, so was really fun to explore. The real highlight was the gentleman at the register. Can't recall his name (he recommended a nearby convention hosted by the store that I checked out and was really cool), but he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful - let me know about an issue that came out that I hadn't been aware of based on my purchases. Great spot!

Upon arrival, I approached the business located in the first third if the strip mall. I entered through the single door located at the A-B corner of the business. The business had several, unknown males behind the counter, yet none acknowledged our entrance. I then rooted around in a few bargain bins and looked in the cases, scant feet away from the employees. No offers to show anything or answer questions. I continued to look at stagnant shelves of toys, set there but not displayed. No eye appeal. I attempted to locate some old issues of series that I enjoy, but was met with negative results. I tried to find a new series I wanted to try out, but found that, if it isn't mainstream, it ain't at Captain's. I continued to watch as the employees and a few clique customers chatted. I know I could have asked for help, had I needed it. It's nice to just be acknowledged occasionally. And this isn't my first visit. Or my tenth. Or my fiftieth. Rarely do they make anyone but "their" customers feel welcome. This is why I don't mind paying shipping for another comic shop to keep my books and send them to me. I know, too, that Captain's has been voted "Best Comic Shop in Charleston" or something similar. But when you are the ONLY shop, it isn't hard to be "best". And it would be different if I were face in the crowd kind of guy. I'm not. I have a distinct style that is rarely repeated. People who have not seen me in twenty years recognize me and speak. I'm not saying I want to be gushed over, but a "Welcome, if you need anything" to a guy that stops regularly would be nice. End of Report.

    We came here on a recent Friday for our son to compete in a gaming night they host. The store was…read morechocked full of SO many games. These are not what you see on the shelves at your local Target or Wal-Mart. These are a much more unique collection! You'll find a lot of fantasy and role-playing board games here. Many crossovers with sci-fi tv shows and cartoons like Firefly or Rick and Morty. They don't really stock word playing stuff like Scrabble or Bananagrams or classic games like Chinese checkers or Life. There is also a very large comic book section of the store. It was all a bit overwhelming but in a good way! This would be a great place to get a unique gift for someone who loves board games. The dedicated gaming room was massive and full of tables and chairs. The other players there were quite kind to our son. The Green Dragon staff guided and explained everything so he felt comfortable. He was a good deal younger than everyone else so as a parent I really appreciated the generosity of the players and staff. We will absolutely be back!

    We drove to this store from Mt. Pleasant so a specific DnD book could be purchased. We wanted,…read moreespecially in current times, to support a small, local business instead over a large, national chain store (where we could have very easily obtained the book with much less driving.) While this type of store is not something I personally would seek out (full disclosure: I went because my partner wanted to), I was immediately hooked when I walked in. I loved the stickers and signs I saw on the windows and door before even walking in. I was ecstatic to see the store highlighting the work of Black/African-American comic-book writers and characters at the front of the store. The game and book options were seemingly endless, even for someone like me who doesn't know a whole lot. And, prior to driving out there, we called just to make sure the certain books were in stock. An employee answered the phone, well before store open, and kindly checked the store in order to best answer our question(s). Both prior to entering and even while in there, the customer service was great. Under normal circumstances, I think I would rate this store a 5/5. I struggle to write this review without mentioning safety cautions, which are important for me at this time for myriad reasons. I've debated whether I should mention these things in these types of reviews (maybe that's a conversation for a different time), and I'm willing to remove or edit when it is no longer relevant. However, what bothered me, a lot, actually, was the lack of social distancing precautions taking place within the store. No employees were wearing masks and only half of the customers in the main area of the store were wearing masks. The store still had their separate section (a room that is attached, but separated from the main store) operating for game time, and at least 10 young adults (~20s) were there eating snacks and playing games. While I only quickly peeked inside (before realizing it wasn't part of the store), I saw only one person sitting at a table playing games wearing a thin mask. As a health scientist and health-cautious individual, this bothersome to me for various reasons, with one of them being my comfortability with leaving the house, especially for non essential items, is not high. When I do go somewhere, however, I expect and hope that places are at least follow minimum recommended CDC guidelines. Because they were totally lacking at Green Dragon this weekend, my partner and I purchased his book and quickly left as fast as possible. We talked about this the entire car ride home - wondering why this was the case? Why aren't the employees concerned for themselves? Or their customers? How should I rate the review because of it?Perhaps most disappointedly, we discussed how under other circumstances, we would have been in that store for at LEAST an hour, and probably longer, looking and likely purchasing way too many games and books for ourselves, our family, and friends. Because this is so important to me, I've decided to rate 3 stars and cut the difference, while being fully transparent in explaining my reasoning. My initial reaction was to rate 1 star altogether because of this, frankly because I find it so unacceptable and astonishing, but I want to try my best to also be balanced and fair, to a degree, realizing that if we all weren't facing these unprecedented times, my impression of the place wouldn't be close to what it is. My plan is that following the pandemic, I hope to return. When I do, I am certain I will change my review to 4 or 5 stars.
